Fox is beating the war drums, but I think you've got a point - they 
only want to pick a fight with what they think are easy targets. They 
underestimated Iraq, but surely they realize that Iran is a much 
tougher nut to crack. I just saw a AFP headline saying that Britain 
thinks that diplomacy, not force, is the way to go with Iran. Maybe 
France would join this time!
